El filtro de aire también es importante, si pensás tener el carro por más de 5 años te recomiendo los lavables de K&N el carro de mi papá lo ha tenido por 10 años y le hacemos sus limpiezas a cada 50000 Km, el mío lleva cuatro y la misma historia, solo se compra el kit de limpieza.
Bought a Mann Air Filter and center tail lamp bulb for my e39 for $15 bucks at Advanced just before Xmas.
When I had my ecoboost there was always something in my catch can, so I would say worth it.
I'm not planning on running a snorkel (Do they even exist?), so a Volant Intake with the Donaldson PowerCore G2 filter was in order. This is a 100k mile "severe duty" filter that is excellent for dust and offroad.
No issues working on my 991.2. Changed the plugs, airfilter, etc myself.
FRAM air filter.
Worst part of owning a Tesla. I replace them every year.
I wind up usually coming back to K&N as I have ran them in about 5 different vehicles over the years including in Corvettes and 8cyl. trucks. I prefer them unoiled after cleaning that way you minimize fouling the maf sensor. As far as performance gains in my 1.4l base Jetta- throttle response is a bit improved but I don’t know if there is a gain in hp (6spd manual as well).
I am not a fan of K&N filters because they have to be cleaned and supposed to be air dried because blow drying can tear the media. I'll be damned if I'm going to notice my air filter is dirty and have to set aside a few hours of my day for it to dry in the sun before I can oil it and drive again, I rather just buy a $10 filter and be done.
Not to mention if you apply too much oil it can get into the MAF sensor and from what I've seen they also have less surface area than a paper filter, albeit they probably don't need the extra surface area, but it does mean they can clog faster.
I tried it on my 2016.5 and it did not like it at all. Lost power, less torque. I came back to the paper one after one day
